In this paper I discuss and develop measures of upstreamness and downstreamness to describe the position of countries and sectors in global value chains. Both measures are defined as the distance between exports and either final demand (upstreamness) or primary factors (downstreamness). When added together, they create a single measure of chain length, and reveal the position of the chain in international trade. I show the usefulness of these measures for highlighting aspects of international participation in value chains that cannot be deduced from measures developed previously. In particular, the measures proposed here better describe the specialization of countries along value chains.
Este artículo discute y desarrolla medidas de Upstreamness y Downstreamness para describir la posición de los países y sectores en las cadenas globales de valor. Las medidas están definidas como distancia entre exportaciones y demanda final (Upstreamness) o con los factores primarios (Downstreamness) y pueden resumirse en medidas simples de largo y posición en cadenas en el comercio internacional. Estas medidas muestran aspectos de la participación en cadenas de valor que no se obtienen con las medidas de referencia. En particular, la especialización de los países a lo largo de las cadenas queda mejor reflejada con las medidas propuestas aquí.
